The majority of people anywhere are DUMB. That doesn't mean the rest of us can't discuss what to do about something we detest and see whether we can't change it. Whether or not we will be able to is another matter.
The people who told you they hated Bush in the 2000-2004 period STILL HATE BUSH. Trust me. And they whine about it. A lot. Just like you, Mr. Slanted "go ahead and mod me troll!" Martyr. It's nice to see you try and mock and accuse people here who, as a general rule, are ON YOUR SIDE.
PS -- voting for the USAPATRIOT ACT wasn't done democratically, as not every citizen got to vote on it personally. We're a republic. Get your definitions straight.
So Instead of having there little Corporate whore record the show and be a good boy and watch all the commercials (No Bathroom breaks!) they Lost a viewer of their commercials. BRILLIANT!!!!!!!
My roommate doesn't watch commercials when he records a show. So I doubt most people do.
They'll keep producing content, alright. It just wouldn't be HDTV content, that's all, unless the government somehow forced the matter.
Most viewers have the analog technology -- there are far, far many more TVs in homes without HDTV then there are TVs with it -- and what viewer is going to want to specifically go out and buy a HDTV if there's not enough content on that delivery method to watch?
I'm with you -- there's gonna be some caterwailing when it's all set in to place, that's for sure, and we've all known the joy of using VCRs to tape stuff off of the TV without much seeming ill effect to the industry. However, I'll give it to them that the landscape has changed somewhat due to the Internet.
If the groups don't want to produce the content due to lack of copyright protections, there won't be any digital television content to adopt maybe? And what consumer is going to want to adopt it if nobody's making shows on it?
I hate the broadcast flag, but I can see why they're saying it even if I don't really agree.
My daddy is a lawyer and once I worked for his law office as office monkey and I served some papers! HOW DID YOU GUESS --
Oh wait. I haven't killed anyone. Yet. I guess this must be a prophecy. Oh no! What do I do now! I feel like I'm in some Greek tragic play here, sniff.
The sad thing is they THOUGHT they were doing it on Tony Blair, and attributed all these not-so-hot characteristics dissing his leadership abilities.
I'm still trying to figure out how they can determine all of that, and not realize that it's not even Blair's handwriting. Big gaffe. Serves them write. I'm so tired of pseudosciences -- especially ones that have been admitted in court as evidence.
I'm not pissed off, I'm pondering the greater purpose. I mean, is there one? There might be one I am missing. I have to check with the experts. As soon as they finish, um, contemplating the picture.
This is only hippy-ish ancedotal evidence, but supposedly yes, they can, and there are supposedly historical accounts of it from before the hormone junk and the "Fab Five".
So if you are a man, take heart in the wholesome knowledge that your nipples, puny as they are, actually can achieve their natural purpose. Although you'll just never be as good at is as women. Pity. I'm sure you're weeping.
Poor guy, bags and circles under his eyes as he so coquettishly poses, the next girly heartthrob hard at work building his empire of evil.
We all can grow up to do great things, kids, look at these pictures and remember that.
Well, I'm not saying that he should be forced into a vasectomy or castrated by any means.
But I'd certainly look strangely at any woman who decided he'd make a good mate. Then again, women have proven themselves remarkably inept at that. I mean, hey, at least he probably wouldn't beat them!
I consider one of the perks of majoring in CS as not having to deal with many girls/women, whom I mostly find inscrutable and sometimes annoying.
I'm a fan of gay guys due to the extraordinary snuggle quality with the absence of sexual tension. I never make them deal with my uterus, and boobies make a good pillow whether you're gay or straight. Yes, good times for all.
I dunno, I consider putting your life on hold for 140 days, camping out on a sidewalk, for a movie you could watch later WITHOUT doing what he's doing right now, is a good bit of evidence for my side. Not entirely conclusive, but pretty gosh darn indicative.
I do realize that everyone can be a dipshit parent, but if I had to admit that my dad was a dipshit parent because he was obssessed about Star Wars...
I'm all for his right and freedom to do whatever he's doing, I'm not calling for anyone to stop him or try to talk some sense into him. It's his life But I'd still consider it a Darwinian tragedy if he reproduced.
If only his dream was fixated on something other than a fictional movie. Sigh. You can't win 'em all.
I'm not basing it on the fact that he likes a movie. I'm basing on the fact that he's willing to shut down his entire life and camp out on a sidewalk for a movie to the exclusion of most anything else.
Where is your evidence to show that he has the capability to bridle his obssession and devote himself to a family? He runs just as much the risk of being so in touch with his dreams and desires that he entirely neglects his children's dreams and goals. It is a two edged sword, and he's not looking to fall on the edge for the children.
Considering that shoving what equates to a bowling bowl through my pelvic region still scares me to death, I may not procreate. And you probably won't either, seeing as how uterus owners simply aren't as attractive as a man. Looks like all our genes might die. Somewhere, Darwin is smiling.
Why are you telling me to get a reality check, when what you actually want me to do is get in touch with my DREAMS, man, 'cause they're so great and wonderful? You're getting in the way of your purpose here. I mean, I'd tell you to get a reality check, but it'd get in the way of your dreams and desires, and I simply wouldn't want that.
Quite frankly, the amount of devotion in his life to Star Wars leaves little to devote to a wife and child. While through the ages women have certainly coped with this, at least their men were out doing something useful, like killing people or inventing things and such. Not contemplating movies.
Imagine this guy, with children and a woman.
"I'm sorry Daddy can't attend your dance recital, Jenny, he's too busy camping out for Star Wars." "Gee, Bobby, Dad would *love* to come to your orchestra's performance, but you know how much this Star Wars thing means to him." "Honey, I'm glad that you're able to follow your dreams, but it would be nice if we could spend some time with you somewhere else than out on this filthy spit and filth covered sidewalk." It's still a shame when a man is too busy with his 9-5 for his family. But because the man is busy fruitlessly camping out in worship of Star Wars? That'd just be ridiculous. And that is why he shouldn't procreate.

A man after midnight, won't somebody help me chase the shadows away! Oh wait, you're mostly hetero males. Hmm. I guess it doesn't work after all then.
My daddy is a lawyer and once I worked for his law office as office monkey and I served some papers! HOW DID YOU GUESS --

Indeed they would. Tell me, good sir, since I am pretty sure you are as learned in the field as any of the experts ::wink:: -- what does it mean?
Tell me who I am!
....Serves them right? I swear I did not do that on purpose.

I can not say "Goodger and Google" ten times fast for the life of me.
I wonder if it is succeeding. Anyone have any statistics on that sort of thing?
My inordinate pleasure.
I'm not pissed off, I'm pondering the greater purpose. I mean, is there one? There might be one I am missing. I have to check with the experts. As soon as they finish, um, contemplating the picture.
Then why are they drawing girls instead of photographing them? Deep questions, indeed.
I guess the editors got girls and guns. It's like an American dream!
A babe in a g-string and a top that shows a bit of bottom nipplage, holding a smoking gun. What's the purpose of it, other than male sex appeal?
Tales from the nipple!
Right now I'm just compelled to say....I hate you Milkman Dan.
This is only hippy-ish ancedotal evidence, but supposedly yes, they can, and there are supposedly historical accounts of it from before the hormone junk and the "Fab Five".

It's kooky, but some men can breastfeed. So women aren't the only ones who can feed a baby...although admittedly it is easier for us.

Don't be such an idealistic dork.
